FP3 Training

Tim Allen
I really wish there were more videos of me and Tim first starting out a few months ago. Not only about his boxing ability, but developing himself into a determined athlete. Off the bad habits, is up 20lb feeling strong and confident. Tim truly looks forward to the time he gets to practice. More videos to come in the future but couldn’t be more proud of Tim.

Had an interesting conversation....

A good friend and I had a discussion about our instinctual drive toward combat sports. Which brought up the question, why would someone intentionally put themselves in a position to get in a simulated fight?

So we started looking at the positives..

For one, the community and accountability of your teammates is a special thing. Knowing your teammates work long hours, have families, other obligations and STILL come in happy to see you, or wonder why you’re not there if you can’t make it. That tribal aspect alone feeds an instinctual desire to be apart of a strong group.

Second, the outlet for unused energy. Modern day life at the desk or doing monotonous tasks only to go home and not find some form of outside movement is a huge prerequisite for serious mental health issues. Personally, I find it hard to take days off of training or go a full day without doing dedicated rounds of shadowboxing. Not because I’m trying to be macho but because it truly keeps me level headed.

Finally, keeping up with any form of a combat sport builds such a great physical foundation that you will notice other unrelated daily tasks will seem a lot easier. When you ask Micky Ward what he misses most about being a fighter, it was being the kind of shape to box. It’s hard to replicate and it covers a lot of the physiological and psychological demands evolution has placed on us.

I really believe if you or even your kids are at a point of wanting to take on something new, something to get excited about, some form of training will be your answer.

And of course Sundays are great working with young Brody! 12 years old already implementing such diverse training. He’s got a real head start on his generation.

But more importantly he’s the most humble, genuine kid. The boy has a great foundation in several martial arts and yet he doesn’t walk around like a big bad bully. That silent confidence is what I wish for every teen growing up. He’s a poster child on why parents should get their kids into a dedicated program. This kind of positive coaching and style of training will shape bodies/minds to be strong, confident, self reliant but more importantly humble!
